Ingredients
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (I prefer 2% milkfat or higher)
- 1/4 cup mayo
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons sugar (more or less to taste – and honey also works!)
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 1/2 cups cooked chicken, cubed or diced (I use rotisserie chicken breast)
- 1 1/2 cups red grapes, sliced
- 1 cup finely diced celery (about 2-3 stalks)
- 1 cup roasted cashew halves and pieces
- any extra seasonings you like (dried herbs, fresh herbs, salt and pepper, etc. – I typically add dried chives!)
Steps
-
Whisk the dressing ingredients until smooth. Taste and adjust, keeping in mind that it should taste salty / concentrated as it will distribute amongst all the other ingredients.
-
Toss your mix-ins (chicken, grapes, celery, and cashews) with as much of the dressing as you like.
-
Taste, adjust, and zhuzh to your heart’s content. I usually stir in some freeze-dried chives and white pepper.
-
Eat on a whole wheat wrap, lettuce wrap, sandwich, toast, dipped with crackers or just PLAIN! Delicious, cold, creamy, I love it. Store leftovers in an airtight container the fridge for up to 4 days.
